Hi guys sorry about delay but I have looked into in car camera / video gear and having looked at some very expensive stuff eventually looked at budget gear and found the actual result quite similar. The links below are example pics only to give you all an idea but the actual equipment I have priced is slightly different in appearance but the same technically. Basically a permanantinstallation would follow the usual video in boot ( 12 v power supply required) a loose lead for quick connection to a monitor or portable tv. (for viewing recordings and setting camera up) and the actual camera secured to the passenger sun blind fixing. It may be preferred though to…

Dunno whether anyone is interested but this guy has copies (US/PAL/JAP) duplicator.uk@btinternet.com Tell him glenlewis@newyorkcity.com gave you his email address. Not expensive either Glen.

Anybody heard of "trust" products, particularly induction kits? If so, know who imports, where they are based? Thanks Russ

Has anyone had their wheel balanced 'on the car'? If so, were there any differences in the wheel balance from having them done off the car?

Morning people, I'm getting a little worried. When i take a left turn, i'm getting a clicking sound btu when i do a right its ok. Any ideas on what it could be? I think it might be the CV joints. If thats the case, does anyone know how much hey cost? Cheers Mansoor

Seen : One silver Zed with raised spoiler and rear tail light conversion heading east towards Jcn 5 of the M4 at 5:30 this morning. Was this anyone here.....?

Conforming to my reputation in my workplace and amongst my friends as a mine of (useless) information, I found the following information : http://l2.espacenet.com/dips/bnsviewer?CY=gb&LG=en&DB=EPD&PN=US5755101&ID=US+++5755101A1+I+ (I know its a big URL, but trust me) The information is something I came across whilst searching for an idea I had on the patent database. It explains the operation of one of the designs in quite good detail. You can search for the patent description on anything at : http://gb.espacenet.com/ Basically, if its interesting (and a gadget) it'll be protected (and described) in a patent. Post a reply i…

Hi guyZ, Just to let you know that I have finally got my O2 sensor replaced along with the PCV valves, fuel damper and fuel pressure regulator. Took about 8 hours to do the lot O2 sensor was the passenger side one and the injuries to my hands will not let me forget the difficulties for a month or so now... PCV valves were also a bit of a bitch and while I'm on it, the fuel parts were too. So why am I telling you all this??? Well its because the car now drives better than ever Also, just to say, if you do replace either the fuel parts or the PCVs, get all the appropriate tubing as well. When I took the pcv hoses off they literally fell apart in my hands.…

I've change the wheels on my Zed, so I have a set of good condition standard ones open to offers.

Evening all, I have a front end squeek/squeel every time I run over even a small bump in the road. And after Tony was in the Z on friday, he says he has the very same problem on his Z. I've poked, proded, bounced, & tried to rattle everything I can. Still havn't found the problem. Its quite loud, sounds like rubbing of roof tin! if you know what I mean, very high pitch. Anyone else got this. Or can tell me where to look. harve.

Anyone ever had a noisy wheel bearing? My late (96) import tt (only 38k) has a horrible bearing noise which sounds like a front wheel bearing to me. My local main agent will only say "yes there is a noise, let it develop" Hope it isn't anything worse. Anyone any experience of noisy wheel bearings on tt's?

My friends dad is doing some sort or Rally near Liverpool on Saturday. Wondering if any one else is going. Prob not Stuart

Hi All Are the titanium key blanks still avalible or are they as rare as rocking horse s**t I would like to get one as i only have a after market one,and it looks really shitty. Cheers John

On the rear of my ZX is the '300 ZX' writing and either side are a set of two lights question....should these lights be going? mine dont, also, should the 300ZX be lit up too?

Just found this if anyone is interested! http://page.auctions.yahoo.com/uk/auction/53310545

Hey guys, just did an Auto Transmission Diag that I got from TT.net, came back with an error code 'Throttle senoser curcuit is shorted or disconnected', could this explain my Z's hesitation?

after driving sometimes, I get out to close my door and get a small electric shock from the car, not painful just damn annoying, how do I fix it without putting one of those static straps to the ground?

...a cop motor, a four hundred and forty cubic inch plant, cop tyres, cops shocks, and it would have to be a model made before catylitic converters so it would run good on regular gas. Oh and a fixed cigarette lighter Joliet Glen Blues.
